Looks like a top job mate and good to see her back.

One thing though. Check the underneath where the 3/4 panel meets the sill to see if there's a gap. There shouldn't be. Mine has had a new 3/4 on each side at some point and these gaps were left.

As a result it's just had to had a load of welding done because the gaps were allowing water in and it corroded the joint between floor and sill.

Best to check it now and make sure it's right than have trouble later on.

No it was just panel damage. Well as far as I know and have been told. It drives well / straight and thats the main thing / test.
